[center]The Most Important Person on Earth[/center] And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts (living creatures), and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb (Christ) as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. (Revelation5:6, emphasis mine). And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul (Genesis 2:7) If the question is asked: Who is the most important person on earth? A lot of names will be suggested by various peoples and groups that make up the earth’s populace. After these names are suggested, the question may be subjected to an opinion poll whereby people vote to be able to determine who is the most important person on earth. In order to be able to determine the most important person on earth, we all have to realize and admit that someone created the heaven and earth and the inhabitants thereof. This earth and the inhabitants belong to someone and that Person is the Lord God. The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein (Psalm 24:1) Now, the things created cannot be greater or more important than the Creator. The Creator of heaven and earth is a Person and that Personality is God. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one (1 John 5:7). To be able to prove without any shadow of doubt as to who is the most important person on earth let’s consider this analogy and question. Dear reader, what is the most important thing in your body as a living soul? Is it your brain, your head, your nose, or your hands? Is it your legs, your stomach, or your mouth? The answer to all these is No! The most important thing in the body of a living soul is your breath! Once that breath is gone you are dead. It is the breath that makes every other part of the body to function. But who gave man his breath? Let us consider the creation of the first man Adam again. And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul (Genesis 2:7). After God formed man of the dust of the ground, He then breathed into man’s nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul. It is the breath of life that made the man alive. Now, what is the breath of life that proceeded from God? It is the Holy Spirit Himself! The breath in every man is the breath of life from God; and that breath of life is the Holy Spirit! This truth is a poser to those who say there is no God. The breath that is in you is a proof that there is God. Hear this Scriptures: God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that He is the Lord of heaven and earth, dwells not in temples made with hands…, For in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring. (Acts.17: 24, 28). The above Scriptures reveal to us that God made heaven and earth and everything therein; and that He dwells not in temples (houses) made with human hands. Where then does He dwell? He dwells in temples made by His own hands – human bodies. How? By His breath or His Holy Spirit. The latter part of the above Scriptures reveals to us that in Him we live, and move, and have our being. That means without Him – without His breath – we cannot live, and move, and have our being. Understand that God the Holy Spirit is a Person. And He has been sent forth into all the earth (see Rev. 5:6 above). That makes Him the most important Person on earth because the creatures (humans) cannot be greater or more important than the Creator. Understand that God the Father is in heaven now. Jesus Christ is sitting on His right hand. But the Holy Spirit has been sent forth into all the earth. Why did God send Him into all the earth? So that He can be inside every temple God has made – the human bodies. This is the will of God that the Holy Spirit is in every person on earth. But who are the recipients of this most important Person on earth? – Those who believe in Jesus Christ. 12. But as many as received Him (Jesus), to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name: 13. Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God (John 1:12-13) How good to know and realize that the most important Person on earth intends to live in you. Who will not want that? But for him to live in you, your house (body) must be clean from all sins and filthiness. The blood of Jesus has been shed on the cross of Calvary to take away the sins of the whole world. This Jesus did for every man and woman including you O reader. Will you be washed? Will you be cleansed? Will you be saved? Will you have the most important Person on earth to live inside you? If so pray this prayer out loud: Lord Jesus, come into my heart. Wash away my sins with your precious blood. Write my name in the book of life. Holy Spirit, come and live inside me. Make me your temple, in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
